Stefanutti named preferred bidder for East London port N-berth deepening, strengthening project
The Transnet National Ports Authority (TNPA) has chosen multidisciplinary construction group Stefanutti Stocks as the preferred bidder for work package one of the Port of East London’s N-berth deepening and strengthening project.
N-berth is located on the West Quay of the port, which also comprises the R-berth and R-extension. The R-berth and R-extension were refurbished in 2005, resulting in a combined berth length of 250 m and depth of -10.5 m.
The concrete works package for N-berth will address the inconsistency in berth depth and length, to ensure that the three berths along the West Quay are -10.5 m in depth, with a total length of 550 m. This will allow the Port of East London to simultaneously berth two car carriers along the West Quay.
The project will increase the berth capacity of the automotive terminal of the port and allow for new-generation vessels to berth in the port.
“The award of this project is a significant milestone in the deepening and strengthening of N-berth and is aligned with the port’s growth strategy of refurbishing and developing port infrastructure. TNPA East London port manager Sphiwe Mthembu says.
Stefanutti Stocks will execute the concrete works package, which is package one of the project, over a period of 12 months.
The second package involves dredging works, which will be undertaken by TNPA’s dredging services.
